Chapter 10 Threats

After Jin Xilan showed his way in the general's mansion, coupled with the appearance of eucommia.

The entire General's Mansion gradually became much more organized.

And the old lady Shi seemed to be very concerned about the loss of her mother, and she really said that she was sick and stayed in the room for a few days, and she didn't even come out to make trouble with Shi Yan.

Such a clean day made Jin Xilan a little unfamiliar.

Jin Xilan took advantage of the past few days to rectify the general's mansion, quietly drove away some domestic servants who were impressed by him in his previous life and had different intentions, and also posted some notices, preparing to secretly exchange blood.

But she knows very well that if she wants to really get the real power of the head of the general's mansion, she is still far away.

"Madame, the old lady has heard that you have driven away the servants...... She also yelled at you to come over. ”

Songmi looked at Jin Xilan with some concern.

At this time, Jin Xilan was looking at the account book in his hand, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Sure enough, even the account book sent by the housekeeper in the house was not real.

Jin Xilan threw the fake ledger aside with some irritability, looking at the cold wind blowing outside the window, his eyes gradually deepened.

"It's almost winter."

Songmi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then nodded.

"Yes, it's getting colder, and it's time for Madame to buy new clothes."

That being said......

Jin Xilan couldn't help but think back to his previous life.

She has been bullied by Mrs. Shi and Shi Yan since she married into the mansion, and she has never even looked at the accounts in the mansion.

Even the silver bone char that should have been allocated in the winter was secretly replaced with some inferior bituminous coal.

In the end, because of this water in Twilight's room, he was burned a long scar from his shoulder to his left arm in order to save Twilight......

Thinking of this, Jin Xilan couldn't help but subconsciously touch his shoulder.

Jin Xilan's mind seemed to recall the burning sensation of being devoured again.

"Ma'am? What's wrong? ”

Songmi looked at Jin Xilan's expression as if something was not quite right, and couldn't help but step forward and ask worriedly.

Jin Xilan came back to his senses, and then shook his head with a chuckle.

"Nothing."

As he spoke, Jin Xilan slowly stood up.

"Didn't Mother say she wanted to see me? Then let's go and see it. ”

Songmi couldn't help but be stunned, and then lowered her eyes a little stunned.

I thought that Mrs. would be tougher, so I just said no.

It seems that the lady is still softer in the end and does not dare to disobey her mother-in-law's orders.

Jin Xilan looked at her lost eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle and raised his hand to rub Songmi's head.

"Don't worry."

Songmi raised her eyes in some surprise and looked over, facing Jin Xilan's eyes.

I saw that those eyes seemed to contain Qiongyu's stars, which made Songmi's eyes light up.

"I'm not going to do it again."

These words are not just said to Songmi.

It's even more to myself.

In the old lady's courtyard,

Shi Yan grabbed her handkerchief, looked at the delicate pastry in front of her, and turned her head a little impatiently:

"Mother! You'll have to vent your anger for me this time! ”

Old Madam Shi glanced at Shi Yan with some hatred:

"You know that you were slapped by her, but you will go back, what is it called by me?"

Shi Yan was speechless for a while.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps outside the door.

"Old lady, second lady...... Madame came. ”

Old Madam Shi and Shi Yan both looked at each other in surprise.

I saw that the old lady raised her chin a little proudly:

"Sure enough, this dead girl still doesn't dare to disobey me."

When the old lady said it herself, it still carried a lot of weight.

"Let her in."

Following the instructions of the old lady, the maid hurriedly went out to invite Jin Xilan in.

only heard a squeak, and Jin Xilan walked in in a dark flower cloud brocade skirt.

Jin Xilan respectfully saluted Mrs. Shi.

"I heard that my mother has something to call me."

Seeing Jin Xilan's humble appearance, Shi Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was as if it was another person who slapped Shi Yan that day.

"It's not the good things you did!"

Mrs. Shi unceremoniously threw a piece of paper on the table.

The paper fell lightly at Jin Xilan's feet.

But Jin Xilan only glanced at it lightly, and did not bend down to pick it up.

This is a poster for recruitment.

"Why do you dismiss a servant without my consent? You don't even consult me about recruiting domestic servants? ”

Old Madam Shi's sharp eyes fell on Jin Xilan's body.

But Jin Xilan just smiled indifferently.

"I'm afraid my mother has forgotten that I am the mistress of this general's mansion, but I am just changing a few subordinates, doesn't I even have this right as the general's wife?"

Smack-

The old lady suddenly got up, pointed at Jin Xilan and said angrily:

"I'm not dead yet! It's your turn to take care of this house! ”

Jin Xilan looked at her trembling hands angrily, her eyes were indifferent and indifferent, and the corners of her mouth pulled a cruel arc.

"How do you know...... How much do you live? ”

What?!

The old lady suddenly felt as if there were ants crawling all over her body, and a chill flashed on her back.

Jin Xilan she ...... Is this a blatant curse for your early death?!

Before the old lady could react, Jin Xilan slowly bent down and picked up the notice.

"Mother rest assured, I will raise my mother to live a long life."

Immediately, Jin Xilan slowly stood up straight and said coldly:

"As for the subordinates who were driven away from the house, I have already written to my mother for what reason they were dismissed, and it is also a hidden danger to keep such unclean hands and feet."

"Also, I found something very interesting among these people."

Jin Xilan suddenly chuckled and raised his hand to rub his chin, his eyes deep but dangerous.

When she saw it, the old lady couldn't help but clench her handle.

"Among them is a servant named Kang'an, who seems to be Mama's son......"

"I heard that he seems to have gone to Xiangshan last month, and I don't know why, it seems that he came in a hurry......"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Yan, who had been silent on the side, suddenly turned pale, she suddenly grabbed her dress, lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.

And when she sat on the throne, the old lady's face was equally ugly.

Jin Xilan looked at them for a long time, and couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head.

"It seems that my mother will not refuse me to change her servant anymore."

The old lady pursed her lips with a calm face and didn't say a word.

Jin Xilan thought about it and simply stepped forward.

"By the way, in that case, my mother also asked Steward Lin to hand over the real account book to me, otherwise I'm afraid that the little budget left in the house will not be enough to support the winter."

This is clearly trying to take advantage of the fire!

Old Madam Shi's eyes widened suddenly, as if she didn't expect that Jin Xilan would know that the account book was fake.

Unexpectedly, Jin Xilan seemed to know about Kang'an.

"Jin Xilan, don't deceive people too much!"

Old Madam Shi couldn't help it, and scolded coldly.

Shi Yan on the side stood up suddenly, trotted to the old lady's side, and said in an almost begging voice:

"Mother! Give her the ledger! ”
